I movie view pane turns gray and i cannot view video in a project.

Has anyone experienced a recent problem in I movie. We have several new I mac's and we have made hundereds of I movie projects, but recently the view window turns gray when working on a project. Its the same for all computer. any ideas?

If it is a new computer, it should still be covered under warranty. I would suggest contacting Apple and letting them walk you through it.
With those symptoms, I would suspect that you need to either reinstall iMovie, or reinstall OSX. Or both.
You can contact Apple at the CONTACT US link at the bottom right of this page.

When I type in my password into the login screen I get the rainbow pinwheel and then the screen turns gray and goes back to account selection... How do I access my account?

Today I was doing my chemistry homework when all of a sudden my mid 2011 MacBook pro running Lion 10.7.4 started going very very VERY slowly to a point where it was unusable. I restarted my computer and went to type in my password. When I did this, the computer recognized the password and began to boot yet the pinwheel came on and the screen turned gray and went back to the account selection screen. It continues to do this everytime I enter my password and I can no longer access my account. How do I fix this.

You can take some of the steps here, #4, #5 or even trying a #18
Step by Step to fix your Mac
but I suspect your going to first have to create a data recovery drive
Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
to get your data off the machine,
then do a #20 to eliminate the bad sectors as that's why your getting the "pinwheel" it's getting a delay reading from the drive, right when your trying to log in too, what a bad spot for it to happen.

Why does my macbook pro 13'' mid 2010 screen turns gray and freezes while connected to external monitor?

Every once in a while my macbook pro just randomly instantaneously freezes and the screen turns gray and it has only done it while connected to a high res 22'' Dell external monitor (so far). Usually when this happens I'm listening to music and I noticed my music continues to play but the keyboard is totally unresponsive forcing me to manually press the start button until the computer force shut's down. Luckily I havnt lost anything yet but I hate having to restart my macbook pro that way...just want to know if its a glitch in the software or if I have a more serious hardware problem. This problem has occured maybe 4 times since I got my macbook last summer 2010 so its not too bad, im just worried cause these computers aint cheap.

Duquan,
Macs can be picky about the RAM which they use; the “Your computer restarted because of a problem” message typically indicates a RAM problem. Since you have a Mid 2009 model, it should have 1066 MHz RAM installed rather than 1333 MHz RAM. If your RAM was mislabeled, then that might cast some doubt upon the quality control which that RAM manufacturer uses. My suggestion would be to purchase 1066 MHz RAM from a reputable manufacturer.

Wifi and bluetooth turned gray and not working

while staying in a hotel my ipod stopped connecting to wifi and would not let me do anything til i synced.when i got home i had to restore but now my wifi and bluetooth have turned gray and are unresponsive.i have restored several times even as a new device but still the same.

Try here. However, frequently it is a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Since the update to iOS 7.0.2 I have only access to my email when there is a new massage. As as massages have been read my name turns light gray and I cannot access my email anymore.

I am in the same predicament...any resolve? Other than possibly taking it into the shop?

After updating my iPad to ios 7.1 my folders turned gray and the bar at the bottom of the screen is the same gray instead of taking on the color of the background. Is there a way to change this?

Turn off the Reduce Transparency setting.

Then the screen goes gray and I cannot scroll or click on anything

When I google something via safari I get the google options but my screen is gray and I cannot click
on anything or scroll. I have turned it on and off several times.

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Include or create a view in the database and use this view?

Well, I need to get related data of the main table from another related tables, so one way to do that is to use the Include method in Entity Framework to get this related data.
However, I am thinking in another option, create a view in the database and use this view in entity framework. In this way, I avoid the needed of the include, because I think that is expensive in resources. But I am no very sure about that.
I would like to know if the use of views on entity framework is a good idea to improve the performace or is better to use the include.
For example, if I use the include I have the advantage that I get only one the main record and all the related data I have in the navigation properties, so the info is more shorted.
Which is the advanteges and disadvantages of both methods to get related data in entity framework?
Thank so much.

Hello ComptonAlvaro,
>>I would like to know if the use of views on entity framework is a good idea to improve the performace or is better to use the include.
If your view would use a Join syntax to query master-child relationship tables, it actually is similar with the Include() method which actually results a duplicate records from master table, you could check this
link for detail description.
>>Which is the advanteges and disadvantages of both methods to get related data in entity framework?
One visible difference is that records from Views are not editable by default(if you want edit them, you could refer to this
blog).
In your case, my suggestion that you could use the lazying load which will load the matter table once and disable the trace if you only need to display data.

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

Usually, that's due to a DivX plug-in or Safari extension... start with Safari - Preferences - Extensions & switch them off. If nothing there, see Safari - Help - Installed Plug-ins & note any that are for DivX.

Upon updating my ipod touch to iOS 6.1.3, the screen turned gray and would not let me do anything, and now the screen is blue?

I was updating my ipod and after it finished the screen turned gray, then blue and now has just recently
turned white, what do I do?

Try:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
